ORLANDO – July 2, 2024 – Good Life Companies (Good Life), a leading partner to independent advisors nationwide, today announced that the company is adding a second corporate headquarters in Orlando.

Celebrating Advisor Independence

“Independence Day is the perfect time to recognize the entrepreneurial spirit of our advisors and the valuable work they do for their clients and their communities,” Delaney said. “It’s a significant milestone in advisors’ careers when they launch their independent businesses and gain control over how to best serve their clients, manage their practices, and build their business as an asset. It’s the purpose behind what we do. As we grow our roots in Orlando, we’re looking forward to creating more opportunities for our business, our employees, and the independent financial advisors we serve.”
